DARWIN TULIPS 



THE TULIP ARISTOCRATS — The Darwin Tulips are exceedingly effective when grown in the garden ur herbaceous border with a black ground of 

 greenery. The beauty, hardiness and perpetuity of Darwin Tulips has made them very popular. As cut flowers they are unsurpassable, the long- 

 stemmed bold, durable flowers having a dignity and character exclusively their own. 



To aid in making selections of varieties for continuity of bloom, etc., we have indicated their relative time of flowering by the letters E, F, G. H and I 

 The E'b being the earliest to bloom. The height is also given but may vary. The bulbs should be spaced about 5 inches apart and base of the bulbs 

 should be 5 to>€ in. deep on heavy soils and 8 to 7 inches deep on light soils.
